I know it's my own fault, but my social media feeds are full of postfeminist ragebait, and the current flavor of poison that is served to me are those videos of women being completely horrible to their partners and then justifying their behavior with being on their period or entering menopause.
Those women are doing and saying the most vile shit to the person who they claim to love, behave in childish and purposefully hurtful ways and then be like, oops, I'm on my period, can't be held accountable. Same for all that perimenopause content, which is basically all just a genderflipped old "boomer hates his wife" meme, but on steroids.
It's all played for laughs, the comment section is full of "yes, girl", "yup, can't blame us" and "so me" - not an ounce of reflection in sight. Men, of course, are supposed to put up with, just take all the abuse that and ideally cater to every whim of their afflicted wives, as that is the bare minimum.
I am aware that women are no monolith, but I don't see how any woman with a shred of dignity can argue in good faith that women are basically slaves to their hormones and can't be held responsible for their own actions for 2 weeks a month (or once they reach a certain age). If that is true, then these modern feminists essentially claim that women should never be put in any leadership positions and can barely function in the workforce.
